The air of summertime is in our midst, and what better way to welcome the season than an evening comprised of
meaty cuisine prepared by the most celebrated chefs in San Diego?
What originally began as a few local chefs casually chatting over food and drinks has now evolved into a progressive concept known as
Cooks Confab. This culinary collaboration, comprised of 18 of San Diego’s most innovative chefs, have teamed together to share their palatable talents with San Diego foodies by hosting stylish grand scale dinner parties. Each chef involved will take a turn hosting an exquisite evening event at their venue, bringing the flair of his or her own unique flavor to the chosen theme or central ingredient.
Cooks Confab Get Meaty
On
Sunday,
June 7th from 3 to 6pm, Cooks Confab will explore all things
Meat at Chef Jason Knibb’s award-winning
NINE-TEN Restaurant at the
Grande Colonial Hotel in La Jolla. For $90 per person, guests will be served a variety of mouth-watering “meat-centric” fare with a modern American twist. Among these savory dishes includes Beef Sliders prepared by Amy DiBiase of
Roseville, Braised Oxtail Ravioli from Antonio Friscia of
Stingaree and Waters Fine Catering's Andrew Spurgin, Beef Tartare from Paul McCabe of
Kitchen 1540 and Beef Tataki from Nathan Coulon of
Quarter Kitchen.
The talented chefs of Cooks Confab not only strive for culinary perfection, but are also dedicated to practicing culinary responsibility. In doing so, a portion of each ticket price will benefit Slow Food Urban San Diego, a global non-profit organization that links the pleasure of food with a commitment to community and the environment by encouraging the consumption of local, seasonal and sustainably grown products. Through past dinners centered on Sustainable Seafood, Birds and Truffles, The Cooks Confab has maintained this commitment by sharing delicious food from healthy plants and animals and promoting it as a cornerstone of culture and community.
“Cooking is not just our job, it is our passion,” said Chef Jason Knibb of NINE-TEN. “We all came together because we love what we do and want to share our penchant for fresh and great tasting food with the community, in an accessible way.”
Get ready to gear up folks. Sunday, June 7th is quickly rounding the bend and you’re in for a real treat. For reservations, call 858.964.5400 or visit nine-ten.com or cooksconfab.com.
